After a couple of months of modeling doldrums, I’m starting to feel the modeling mojo flow again…
Today I finally got a gloss coat airbrushed on in the morning, and this evening I applied the decals… not many, but they sure add color
I want to get this one wrapped up soon…

What a beauty it is !
Luckily only a few decals, they can sometimes be pain in the ass to get aligned correctly etc (I know I know, obvious joke..

)

Thanks guys! Happily enough these decals did not give the challenges that Academy decals have a reputation for…

Yes they can be… nice pun
On eBay I’ve seen sets of decals for sale of pinup girls like this in various states of dress/undress and multiple scale sizes….
